Everyone seemed to be infected by Zhuge Youlin's excitement, and their anxiety dissipated a little. They looked up at the seemingly endless ladder, their eyes firmer.
Ying Zun said calmly: "Let's go."
After hearing this, everyone immediately started climbing the ladder.
Just as Zhuge Youlin was about to rush forward like a gust of wind, Chen Yan grabbed him by the back of his collar.
"Who?!" Zhuge Youlin turned around.
Chen Yan warned coldly: "Listen, don't fall behind."
Zhuge Youlin felt a pang of guilt at this, and smiled awkwardly, "I definitely won't fall behind. I was just... warming up, I definitely wasn't running."
Only then did Chen Yan loosen the back of his collar.
The group walked up the boundary ladder. Their speed was not slow, but not much faster either, because they found that the air in the boundary space was squeezed, making it difficult for them to breathe.
If Chen Yan were to put it, it was due to lack of oxygen.
Two hours later.
As they were walking, Yan Yao suddenly asked, "How many levels of the ladder have we walked?"
Senior Bai Kang jokingly said, "It's less than half."
He followed behind the crowd, appearing unhurried and relaxed, with a smile on his face.
He added, "You've only climbed over 30,000 steps of the Stairway. At this rate, it will be difficult for you to reach the destination within five hours."
Upon hearing this, Yan Yao and others' faces suddenly turned ugly.
They had been walking for so long that their strength was almost exhausted, having only climbed more than 30,000 levels of the boundary ladder.
Ying Zun, who had been silent the whole time, turned to look at them and said in a deep voice, "Speed up."
No one dared to complain and could only speed up and move forward.
If they didn't have the spiritual power in their bodies to support them, they would probably have collapsed.
Another hour and a half passed.
Some people were so tired that they couldn't walk at all.
Jiang Gaoyuan was panting, sweating profusely, and his face turned pale. "My legs are sore and weak. I can't walk anymore."
Yan Yao's lips were also extremely pale. She gritted her teeth and said, "Hold on a little longer. We have already climbed more than 70,000 levels of the Stairway!"
Jiang Gaoyuan also wanted to persevere, but his hands and feet were shaking, sore and weak, as if lifting his legs again was an extremely painful thing.
Along the way, he had no idea how many pills he had taken to restore his strength, but as an alchemist, his physical fitness was weaker than that of others.
At the same time, Sikong Ruiling of the Gaishi team, Zhan Zhilan and Jiang Zong of the Fengshen team, Qian Hongyun of the Tianming team, and Mu Wen of the Wuxiang team all became physically exhausted.
They were exhausted.
I wanted to keep walking, but I found that my pace was as slow as a snail.
Originally, everyone was almost moving forward at the same pace, but now, it is obvious that they have fallen behind.
Gongsun Yun and others could only support them and continue moving forward.
Yan Yao originally just wanted to give some verbal encouragement, but when she saw Ying Qi and the others helping their teammates, she thought to herself that if she didn't help at this time, wouldn't they all think she was heartless and ungrateful?
She had no choice but to support the burden Jiang Gaoyuan and continue to move forward.
It would have been fine if she didn't support him, but once he did, the weight of Jiang Gaoyuan's entire body fell on her, slowing her down.
Yan Yao's eyes flashed with restlessness, and she had the urge to push Jiang Gaoyuan off the ladder.
Although all members of the Shura team had also consumed a lot of physical strength, they were still in good condition.
Chen Yan helped Senior Brother Yin to support Mu Wen, but within two seconds, Xiao Zechuan took the initiative to come over and replace Chen Yan to help support Mu Wen.
Mu Wen was touched and breathed heavily, "Thank you."
Chen Yan shook her head.
Xiao Zechuan said calmly, "You're welcome."
This scene surprised Shura's friends.
No way, is Xiao Zechuan such a kind-hearted person?
The answer is naturally no.
He was just trying to help Chen Yan reduce his burden.
Shura's friends just laughed it off, knowing what was going on.
At this time, although Chi Yue was not exhausted, he was a little irritated after walking such a long distance, and he wanted to sleep.
I'd rather lie down.
Chi Yue looked depressed and felt like he was about to wilt.
He suddenly reached out and grabbed Chen Yan's arm. When she turned her head to look at him, he frowned, and the red mole between his eyebrows became brighter. He pursed his lips slightly and said aggrievedly: "Tired."
At this moment, Zhuge Youlin keenly sensed the situation and quickly reached Chi Yue's side. He then questioned, "What are you tired of? Are you so exhausted after this?"
Chi Yue's eyes turned cold.
Zhuge Youlin put his hands on his hips and smiled, "Look at me, I'm full of energy."
Then he continued, "You don't want Yanyan to drag you away, do you? If you do, you're too weak, aren't you?"
Chi Yue's expression grew increasingly cold. If his eyes could kill people, he would have killed Zhuge Youlin first.
"Can you still hold on?" Chen Yan knew that Zhuge Youlin was using provocation. She raised the corners of her lips slightly and asked Chi Yue.
Chi Yue released his hand and nodded: "Yeah."
Seeing this, Zhuge Youlin smiled with emotion and said, "You are finally not lazy anymore."
Chi Yue suddenly said something that made Zhuge Youlin dumbfounded.
"You carried me on your back."
"What did you say?!" Zhuge Youlin's voice became a little louder, as if he was a little bit unbelievable.
This made Chen Yan and the others stunned.
If they continued to get along like before, Chi Yue would have a high probability of confronting Zhuge Youlin, or even fighting. However, now, Chi Yue was not angry at all, but... there was a hint of revenge in his heart.
Chi Yue repeated: "You carry me on your back."
Zhuge Youlin's eyes widened and he asked, "Why?"
"You said you were full of energy."
Zhuge Youlin choked: "..."
Chen Yan and the others couldn't help laughing.
Chi Yue's pair of dark brown eyes were a little cold, and he said stubbornly: "Carry me."
"I'm not your little brother. Pei Su and Yu Chu are. Go find them!" Zhuge Youlin knew he was being humiliated, so after he finished speaking, he quickly walked away from Chi Yue.
Pei Su and Wen Yuchu's expressions were slightly stagnant.
How did this fire suddenly burn on them?
And when they looked at Chi Yue, Chi Yue was also staring at them.
Suddenly, it was a little scary.
Being a younger brother is so hard! I have to do all sorts of chores, and now I have to carry people up the ladder?
Fortunately, at this time, Senior Bai Kang spoke.
"Everyone, please pay attention. In an hour and a half, all the Boundary Ladders will disappear, and you still have nearly 30,000 Boundary Ladders to go. The situation is not good. If you can't reach the end, then I'm sorry, you will all remain in the Boundary Space from now on."
As soon as he finished speaking, Senior Bai Kang suddenly appeared from the back of the ladder at the front. He clasped his hands together and said with a smile, "Next, I will wait for you at the finish line."
Hearing this, everyone's expression changed slightly.
